What is the planet with the fourth longest year in your solar system?
Jupiter takes 11.86 Earth years to orbit the Sun - this is the 4th longest orbital period.
How long does it take to orbit the sun in days?
Each planet in the solar system has a different orbital period, corresponding to the different sizes of their elliptical orbits.For the Earth, the present orbital period is 365.25636days. (rounded)
What planet taks longer to get round the sun?
In our solar system Neptune is the planet with the longest period or year - equal to about 165 Earth years.
Which planet orbits the sun every 165 days?
Mercury is the planet that orbits the sun every 165 days. It is the closest planet to the sun in our solar system and has the shortest orbital period.
If a planet had an average distance of 10 au what would it's orbital period be?
It would depend on the star it was orbiting. If it were in our solar system, its orbital period would be little more than 30 years. (Saturn is approximately 9.5 AU from the Sun.)
What cycle determines a year on a planet?
A "year" on earth turned out to be the period of the earth's orbital revolution around the sun, although the word was invented long before any knowledge of the structure of the solar system or the earth's place in it. By analogy, the same word is typically used to refer to the period of orbital revolution of any other planet.
Which inner planet has the largest orbital velocity?
Mercury is the fastest orbiting planet in the inner Solar System, with an average orbital velocity of 47.87 km/s.
Which planet takes maximum period to complete 1 revolution around the sun?
If you still consider Pluto to be a planet, then the answer is Pluto, which completes one revolution around the sun in 248 years. If you agree with the downgrading of Pluto to something less than a full-fledged planet, then the answer is Neptune. The general rule is: The farther a planet is from the sun on the average, the longer it takes to complete its orbital revolution.
One day on which planet equals 318 earth days?
There are no planets in our solar system with a rotational period of 318 days. The longest is Venus, with a rotational period of 243 days.
An object in your solar system with the shortest amount of days in a year?
From among the objects discovered so far, that would be the planet Mercury with a period of orbital revolution of 88 earth days.Anything with a shorter orbital period would have to spend most of its time closer to the sun than Mercury is.
Which planet in the solar system has the shortest orbital path round the sun?
Mercury.
What planet in the solar system has a longer orbit than Jupiter?
No planet in the solar system has a longer orbit than Jupiter. Jupiter has the longest orbital period, taking approximately 11.9 Earth years to complete one orbit around the Sun.
